Thank you to all who have starting writing or reviewing the new
user
documentation for future version 9 (initial
announcement). Everything seems to start well.
Here is a few reminders for those who would like to jump in:

Check the spreadsheet at https://odoo.com/r/user-doc
. We have increased the table of content with more subjects.
Don't hesitate to take free slots as writers or reviewers if you
are confident in one subject.
If you are creating a new Google Docs sheet, don't forget to
allow users to put comments for the review.

If you are afraid of the blank page or don't know where to
start, do not hesitate to reuse content. The v7
documentation is probably a good start. Sometimes a bit
outdated or not perfect but still a lot of valid information.
You can also take example on the assets
management page (published
version).

If you need to test some features or needs to take new
screenshots (to do with the new design), please use one of the
following link:Runbot
master with new design (from development enterprise
branch)Runbot master
enterprise (in which the new design will be merged soon,
latest features)Runbot master
community (same as above, minus enterprise modules)
Keep in mind that these branches are still in heavy development,
features may be broken from time to time so if something stops
working, check a bit later to see if it has been fixed (you can
ping me if the feature you are documenting stops working and
isn't fixed after a few days).

Once both the writing and reviewed are done, we (probably xml or
myself) will convert the pages to RST to push to GitHub (don't
hesitate to ping me, if we miss one reviewed page). Once this is
done, the whole edition work will be switched to GitHub, so this
will be the place for further updates.
If you notice an error, typo or need for rewriting some parts of
already published pages, please report
an issue or, even better if you can, submit a correction
to the existing files (we will add buttons to make that easier
from published documentation).
The documentation is build nightly so don't worry if your
changes are not automatically published.
